Swalwell V. Trump Et Al
Several lawsuits allege that former President Donald Trump and his associates, Donald Trump Jr., Rudolph Giuliani, and Mo Brooks, conspired to undermine the 2020 presidential election results, resulting in the attack on the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021. Representative Eric Swalwell filed a lawsuit seeking to hold the defendants responsible for the injury and destruction that followed. Another lawsuit accuses Trump of attempting to pressure state officials to overturn the election results in Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Georgia, and directing his followers to intimidate state officials. Other lawsuits allege that the defendants intentionally provoked the Capitol riots, encouraged a mob of individuals to storm the Capitol, and aided and abetted common-law assault. The lawsuits seek damages, prevent further violence or disruption to the proper functioning of the federal government, and any additional relief the court deems just and proper. The attorneys representing the plaintiffs are Caleb Andonian PLLC, KaiserDillon PLLC, and Coburn & Greenbaum PLLC.
